DOJ interviewed USPS board member Bill Zollars in federal fraud investigation

Steve Mnuchin gave Bill Zollars' former company a $700 million loan to continue Pentagon work despite fraud probe

https://www.salon.com/2020/08/28/doj-interviewed-usps-board-member-bill-zollars-in-federal-fraud-investigation/

"A recently-appointed member of the U.S. Postal Service Board of Governors has been interviewed by Department of Justice investigators, as part of a federal suit filed against his former freight company for defrauding the Pentagon of millions of dollars, court documents show.

About two weeks after Bill Zollars, the former chairman, president and CEO of YRC Worldwide, Inc., was confirmed to the USPS board by the Senate in June, the Treasury Department awarded his former company a $700 million COVID relief loan. That came from funds designated for Pentagon contractors — but Zollars' former company, which he left in 2011, has been accused of defrauding the Pentagon during his tenure."

"Zollars also currently sits on the board of directors for Prologis, a logistics multinational that rents industrial real estate to the Postal Service, as well as to competitors such as UPS and FedEx.

HuffPost reported Wednesday that Prologis financial documents from this spring show that Zollars has been compensated with stock shares worth more than $1 million, and that he holds options to purchase thousands more shares. Zollars' Prologis bio says that he serves on the compensation committee."

Unbelievable graft and corruption.

At his campaign rally in New Hampshirem Trump said,

“You know, I want to see the first woman president also, but I don't want to see a woman president get into that position the way she'd do it -- and she's not competent. She's not competent. They're all saying, 'We want Ivanka.' I don't blame you,"

1) In a tweet, Eric Trump said Kamala Harris was a whorendous choice. He later took that tweet down.

Here we go.

2) “Everybody” is asking for Ivanka. Is Trump going to blame his poor poll numbers on Mike Pence and dump him for Ivanka just before the election?

Is he going to pick a woman because Biden picked a woman? Will this be his "October surprise"?

Are we being groomed for a dynasty?

In her RNC speech Kellyanne Conway tells America Donald Trump is a "champion for women!"

The book released last year "All The President's Women." "Donald Trump And The Making of a Predator." is just one of many venues that begs to differ.

NYC journalist E.Jean Carroll begs to differ with her claim that Trump actually raped her in a high end New York City women's lingerie store changing room.

Michael Cohen's new book will also beg to differ with extremely salacious and lie exposing details of Trump's true extra-marital sexual activities.

Billy Bush and tens of millions of American's who heard Trump's taped bragging "grab em by the Pu$$y" comments beg to differ.

Young Miss Universe contestants who found Trump in their changing room space ogling them beg to differ.

Trump sex affair porn star Stormy Daniels and Playmate Karen McDougal whom Trump continually slanders by calling them XXXXX in his nationally broadcast tweets ( and still does to this day) would beg to differ.

Women who Trump has publicly insulted regards their looks or build:

Stormy Daniels "Horseface"

Carly Fiorina  " Look at that face. Who could vote for THAT!"

1996 Miss Universe Pageant contestant Alicia Machado "Miss Piggy-Disgusting."

Former White House aide Omarosa " Dog."

And on and on.

It's disturbingly perverse to see and hear someone of Kellyanne Conway's huge news coverage access shamelessly promote something so clearly opposite of reality regards Donald Trump and his true attitude toward and treatment of women.

Especially when "even she knows" he is the opposite of her "Champion Of Women" promotion claim.

German leaders condemn far-right attempt to storm Reichstag

https://apnews.com/43388137188cb685914c64a4a8589ee3

"BERLIN (AP) — Senior German officials on Sunday condemned attempts by far-right protesters and others to storm the parliament building following a protest against the country’s pandemic restrictions.

Hundreds of people, some waving the flag of the German Reich of 1871-1918 and other far-right banners, breached a security barrier outside the Reichstag late Saturday but were intercepted by police and forcibly removed.

About 300 people were arrested in front of the Reichstag and following an incident at the Russian embassy, according to police.

Robert Habeck, the co-leader of Germany’s Green party, called for a thorough investigation into the incident.

“The fact that Nazis with imperial war flags try to storm the Bundestag recalls the darkest period in German history,” he told the Funke media group."

 

Oh boy.

My first suspicion is that the person who shot this supposed Trump supporter was a Trump supporter also.

This type of scenario has played out many times before in history, to spark outrage benefiting one political agenda over another.

Probably the same scenario with JFK on 11,22,1963.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/sell-it-tonight-on-ebay-trump-gives-emergency-officials-his-autograph-claims-its-worth-dollar10k?ref=home?ref=home

 

“President Trump on Saturday took a moment to hand out autographed photos of himself to emergency officials following a roundtable discussion of the devastation wrought by Hurricane Laura, which bashed Louisiana and Texas as a Category 4 storm earlier this week. He advised the officials to put the autographs up for auction online. “Sell this tonight on eBay. You’ll get $10,000,” he told one attendee. Signing a sheet of paper, he said, “If I put your name down, it loses a lot of value. So sell it tonight on eBay.” The event was part of a tour of Louisiana and Texas to survey damage and hear from state and local leaders about what they need for efforts to recover from the hurricane.”

 

So much for disaster relief.

Better than paper towels, I guess.

Trump just tweeted his response to the killing in Portland last night...

"GREAT PATRIOTS"    

"GREAT PATRIOTS"   ?????????   !!!!!!!!!

Just what we need to hear from our President to calm the violence, anger and rhetoric on both sides.

Right wingers have been calling for Civil War 2.0.

When a right-winger guns down two protesters — who were not burning or looting — the right-wingers celebrate.

When a right-winger rolls into Portland with a thousand armed compatriots and gets shot — the right-wing crocodile tears flow.

The cowardice and hypocrisy of Trumpian fascism is disgusting.

I say to all — people are prone to imitate what they hate.  Be careful how you hate.
